About Ruskeasuo

Ruskeasuo is well connected by public transport and stays within easy reach of central Helsinki and Pasila. It is a green, fairly residential area with nearby forests and a mix of owner-occupied and rental housing, attracting a steady everyday population rather than a strongly student-led one. Despite its relative proximity to the centre, it has a calm suburban feel.
